FOURTH OF JULY WEEKEND AT THE BEACH

Another holiday weekend, another trip to the Lovorns' favorite family seaside condo in Santa Rosa Beach.

Located on the Florida Panhandle just east of Destin, Santa Rosa Beach is upscale yet laid back, loaded with good restaurants and relatively free from the over-crowding in nearby Destin and Panama City.

The best part of the trip was seeing Carley's brother Barrett and his wife Molly!

Rowan was thrilled to see his Auntie Em.

Uncle B was lots of fun, too.

Who's excited to head down to the beach?

Playing in the waves with Papa was a special treat.

When we got tired of the waves and the sand, Papa was always down for some swim-time in the pool.

When it was time to eat, there were dozens of good restaurants to choose from. For lunch, some tasty fried crab-claws at the Back Porch hit the spot.

Rowan was having such a good time, he didn't even mind that MeMe (Carley's mom) hired a photographer to take at least a hundred photos of us all dressed in white and frolicking in the sunset.

Will this photo be on the Christmas card we send you? You just never know. Meanwhile, until next time...¡VIVA LA PLAYA!
